If one to spend time learning a new language for international communication the choice of the language must maximize the number of people you can comminicate with. Unless you want to talk only to other slavs, I would say English, Spanish a

This is a good move. As Ukrainian before the war broke, I tried to convince my Russian contacts to do something about it. At least publicly state that they are against the war. Exactly one (!) out of my ~50 Russian Facebook "friends&qu

Few years ago I stopped trying to buy most advanced bleeding edge top to the line phones and go instead with more basic, cheaper model. Makes my life much less stressful. I know if it broke I can quickly replace it for few hundred bucks.

The title is misleading. It is not the same as the original page title, so basically user @kjeetgill is scamming us. I find this behaviour unethical and offencive. Please do not upvote.

As Ukrainian I DO blame Russia's stance here. Ukraine is a free independent democratic country. It is free to join any alliances it wishes. This is not the reason to pre-emptively attack it. Also it is totally unprovoked. It is not lik

The idea of building new Usenet-inspired discussion system is great. We can update it with new distributed tech, privacy, etc. However authors chose to limit it to "retro text-only inteface." In my opinion this is a handicap. At l

One can define a high-level security property, like "not executing remotely-downloaded code" and try to prove that no execution path of the program triggered by input data violates it. The formal verification will force you to con

I think the most important feature of `exa` is not what additional information it could show, but rather what it does not show. It makes moden ergonomic choices presenting directory information using omissions, abbreviations, and colours.
